NOOSA Tennis Club brought together the best of the best in the finals of the Solinico series, last weekend.
The tournament had winners from all the Solinico junior tournaments play-off in a round-robin format to decide the season winner for each age group.
Tournament director Blake Taylor said the players and families enjoyed the Noosa Tennis Club facility and the location.
“For many it’s like a tennis holiday,” he said.
Club professional David McMahon said the match play was tight with no easy matches or warm-up rounds that you may see in a typical tournament.
“With all players being winners of past tournaments the pressure was on from the beginning,” he said.
“There was some great tennis and tough competition in all age groups. This being the second time only there has been a series final, it’s a full day of strong challenging tennis which is exactly what these budding young stars need. Hopefully we can host this growing event again in the coming years.”
Some of the Noosa tennis club players played in the tournament including Jordan Horner, who was runner-up in the 10-year-old division, Sabine Priestly, Liam Puttergill and Jack Barnett, who played in the 14-and-under age group.
